Teaching our Children About Money
In the classroom, I teach prekindergarten children about coin and bill identification. But as a parent, we must teach children about spending money responsibly. Actually, I am learning how to do this with the help of my church. In this economy, I was forced to look at how I spend money in a detailed manner. I was shocked to find out that I had taken on too much debt and could no longer make all of the payments. So I had to file a Chapter 7 bankruptcy. Consequently, I was disappointed in myself. So I am picking myself up and dusting myself off . I am learning how to appreciate what God has given me instead of constantly complaining about what I don't have. I have a job, a roof over my head, transportation to and from work and food to eat. For this, I am very grateful to God. God has taken care of me in spite of myself.
